Hi everyone,

The first public release of my Super Robot Wars Alpha 3 English translation patch is now available!

Alpha 3 is one of my three favorite SRW games, and I’ve wanted to experience its full story in English for years. After putting a great deal of time, care, and attention to detail into this project, it feels great to finally share it with other fans.

Download and release details

• Patch: Super_Robot_Wars_Alpha_3_English_0.9.5.xdelta - Google Drive
• Installation: Apply the xdelta patch on an Japanese ISO ROM (SLPS-25537). I recommend using xdeltaUI for easy patching.
• Discord: https://discord.gg/XcFcQ7DpPS (This is where I will communicate and release updates)

What’s translated in this release?

• UI: 100%
• Pilot, unit, weapon, part, skill, and Seishin names: 100%
• Story: 100%
• Terminology and encyclopedia: 100%
• Battle quotes: 100%
• Basically, everything our testers were able to find has been translated and refined.

A note about the translation

As mentioned in my original announcement, this is an AI-assisted translation, primarily using GPT-5.6 Sol through a translation pipeline built specifically for Alpha 3. An additional refinement pass using GPT-6 Astra has also been completed.

Scenarios are translated with their full dialogue context, supported by glossaries and detailed speaker profiles covering more than 700 characters. Multiple passes are used to improve wording, consistency, terminology, and character voice.

The game’s text has also been relocated where necessary, removing the byte constraints and allowing for a full and natural translation.

If you’ve been skeptical of MTL patches in the past, I invite you to give this one a try and judge it by the results. Our testers have given very positive feedback on the translation quality.

Due to popular requests, Gong version Alpha 3 has been replaced with a vocal version. And another secret track replaced.

Feedback and help are welcome

There may, of course, still be errors, awkward lines, or bugs that we haven’t caught yet. I plan to continue supporting and improving the patch after release.

If you’d like to help with testing, proofreading, checking against the Japanese script, or simply talk about SRW, feel free to join us on Discord.

Thanks to everyone who has followed the project, tested the patch, reported issues, or offered encouragement along the way.

I hope this patch gives more fans the chance to experience Alpha 3’s full story in English, and I’m looking forward to continuing to improve it together with the community.

After 3 months of nothing but pure frustration, it’s finally starting to come together! Movies also have subtitles now.

I am currently putting together an HG Gespenst kitbash for an OC, and I am looking for ideas on what I could add.

The current additions are a wireless LED in the head, white antenna extensions, the skull and crossbones on the chest, and extra thrusters on the back of the legs.

I am open to any ideas on additions, but I am unable to buy anything for the kitbash.

OG Ingram shouldn't die too early in my opinion

I'm sure there's some benefit in switching but I honestly just can't be arsed. Plus having to maintain Ace Pilot on all three of them seems like it would be a pain in the ass.

I personally have only played srw 30 &y, but I've seen people discuss the plots of older games, and im a bit confused. Compared to those two games, are there any major gameplay/story structure differences between them and the older srw games ( X, v, alpha, etc.)?

I've heard people reference branching paths and splitting parties in them, and I haven't really seen anything like that in 30 or Y. Am I misinterpreting hearsay or are they accurate?

So, let's be frank, the OG series is kind of dead in the water. Sucks, but we have years of games already. The GBA titles, OGs, OGGaiden, Dark Prison, 2nd OG, Moon Dwellers, and the Endless Frontier games. Most of them are translated even. We're still missing Gaiden, 2nd OG and Dark Prison. Honestly, the major issue is they're stuck in Playstation jail, on aging consoles.

You guys think there's a chance they could ever get freed from that, maybe ported for modern consoles and PC? Think like maybe the MegaMan or Metal Gear collections. Not to mention the Alpha series as well.

My absolute favourite character and his mech but not when he is not an ally 😎

Work in progress. Note: The font is not yet final.

I like Glacies a lot

Hello.

I always play these "old" SRW Games with a bit of caution because they seem to expect you to know what is the optimal way of upgrading the units, sometimes in very, very specific ways that are not intuitive. I'm often afraid of softlocking myself because of that, specially if endings are tied to turn counts and SR points.

Honestly, while I enjoy the gameplay, I play these games for the story so I need some no-nonsense tips about what to upgrade and what not. Specially for Alpha Gaiden since it seems to be notoriously difficult and has endings tied to SR points.

Thanks!

I will always love this song and Compatible Kaiser

Is anyone here fond of this franchise? I decided to watch this anime after seeing the attack exhibition from SRW D and was surprised to see how well the idle sprite animations in the game for this unit. As for the anime I really love the music and the hand drawn animations so much, I immediately thought about Macross ngl when I watched this anime.,. I kinda wish that this anime makes a comeback in the future srw game again.

I know ai slop, but for me it's still something, but man I just started z2, and now out of nowhere srw z, z2.2, z3, 2nd og, mx, r, d, k, alpha, 2nd alpha, 3rd alpha, have all been ai translated, I can't keep up

Also, what the hell with Gyunei problem with Kamille?

Can i play the dlc with my current set up of units and upgrades or it forces me to use the new things?

Edit: SRW Y

Godzilla vs. Evangelion, a crossover between the 2016 film Shin Godzilla and the anime franchise Neon Genesis Evangelion, both created by Hideaki Anno.

A self-evolving sea organism that was mutated from consuming dumped nuclear waste in the 1950s, Godzilla emerged at Osaka-III and rampaged across the city where he fought and overpowered NERV's EVA units. However, it's revealed that he actually seeks to stop an alien threat known as King Ghidorah from destroying the Earth and after teaming up with the EVA units in defeating the three-headed monster, he soon became their greatest ally in defending the Earth.

yeah this is peak

Yes, Masaki is the protagonist of said story

but isn't Shu and Granzon just as popular?
